Yanks’ Nova likely done for season

Baseball’s latest victim of a torn ulnar collateral ligament is Yankees SP Ivan Nova, who left Saturday night’s game with the injury. Nova will undergo further examination today, but he appears headed for Tommy John surgery that will sideline him for the rest of the season. Vidal Nuno, David Phelps and Adam Warren are the leading candidates to take Nova’s rotation slot, and whoever gets it might have value in AL-only leagues.

Streaming starters: Tyson Ross was terrific on Friday, Roenis Eliasgot knocked around on Saturday, and Rick Porcellohad a strong game on Sunday, so we’re up to 11-9 for the season. Today’s pick is Wily Peralta (owned in 8.2 percent of FOXSports.com leagues) against the Padres, while Tuesday’s selection is Edinson Volquez (7.7 percent owned) versus the Reds. Let’s keep riding the Volquez train for awhile and see what happens.

Reminder: The Red Sox have an 11:05 a.m. ET Patriots’ Day game against the Orioles today. Set your lineups early.

In other Red Sox news, OF Shane Victorino and 3B Will Middlebrooks could both be activated this week following rehab assignments, while 1B Mike Napoli is questionable for today after getting hit in the kneecap by a pitch on Sunday.

Cole Hamels is listed as Wednesday’s probable starter for the Phillies.

The Pirates have acquired 1B Ike Davis from the Mets, and will make him the lefty (meaning busier) half of a first-base platoon. Who wants to bet on a rebirth for Davis, who’s owned in 1.5 percent of FOXSports.com leagues?

It sounds like Brewers OF Carlos Gomezmight be facing a multi-game suspension for his part in a bench-clearing brawl on Sunday. Gomez says he’ll appeal any suspension, so he probably won’t miss any time this week.
